Company’s employees will tutor students: LiveOffice, a Torrance-based company, on Friday afternoon will donate employee time to tutor students for a literacy program at Green Elementary School in Lawndale.

The program is sponsored by the nonprofit Reading Partners, a literacy tutoring program in which volunteer-tutors work one on one with students to improve reading skills.

“The students love the one-on-one time with their tutors,” Erica Trullinger, regional manager of Reading Partners, said in a statement. “The program is effective and rewarding. After 25 one-hour sessions, most students improve one grade level in reading.”
